Ever wondered what zero degrees Celsius feels like in Fahrenheit? It’s one of those common questions, especially when you’re checking the weather or traveling!
So, how do we figure it out? Well, the formula to convert Celsius to Fahrenheit is to multiply the Celsius temperature by nine-fifths, or one point eight, then add thirty-two.
When we plug in zero for Celsius, zero times nine-fifths is still zero, and adding thirty-two gives us… thirty-two! So, zero degrees Celsius is exactly thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit.
That means water freezes at both zero degrees Celsius and thirty-two degrees Fahrenheit. Easy, right? Now you know the freezing point, no matter which scale you’re using!
